These players will be the first to experience the new Expansion to Warcraft® III: Reign of Chaos™. The beta signup is scheduled for a seven-day period beginning at 11:00 a.m. Pacific Standard Time (GMT -8.) on Friday, February 14th and ending at 11:00 a.m. Pacific Standard Time (GMT -8) on Friday, February 21st.

Following the registration period, we will randomly select 10,000 testers to participate in the initial phase of the expansion beta test. Please note that multiple submissions will result in disqualification.

The beta, which will be playable only over Battle.net™, will give selected testers a chance to play-test many of the new features that are available to each of the races in Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos--Humans, Orcs, Night Elves, and Undead.
